Hi all,

I recently started my IT study and got into a discussion with my teacher about the security of IOS.

He is one of those “apple fanboys” and said it is nearly impossible to RAT an iPhone. I did not agree with this and after a long discussion in class he challenged me to show him otherwise. Does anyone know a good tool to demonstrate that Ios isnt as safe as he claims it is? I have an old Iphone 13 laying around wich I can use as test object.

~Noa

    I have always looked at it this way. I can make a phone 100% unhackable. You will not be able to make phone calls or texts or anything else with it, but its unhackable. So iPhone is very secure on the grand scheme of things, but you are also hamstrung with what you can/cannot do with it. Android, if you can dream it, you can do it. It is much less secure, but there are very few restrictions you have with it. Thete is inherently nothing wrong with either, they both have their niche. My wife has an iPhone, but it does everything she needs with it, and is very secure, I dont have to worry about her getting hacked because of her phone. I use Android, but I know/ understand what the risks are, and mitigate them as much as possible. I use my Android for work and play in ways that the iPone is incapable of. Yes, the iPhone can/has been hacked but not very easily and not without help from the user.
